Cat-O-Lympics - Hiding Part 1

Bob: Well Jim looks like we’re here for the ::rustles papers:: Hiding Event! Wait, Hiding Event Jim? What’s this going to look like? Black cat at midnight? White cat in a snow storm? Heh, Heh.

Jim: No Bob. To avoid just that, and lots of random cat-free photos, the rules of the Hiding event are simple:
The Catlete’s intent must be to hide, and some portion of the catlete must be visible to the judges, so they can see the competitive entry. And to be clear - the catlete has every opportunity to change up the the apparatus at anytime, and any species is welcome.

Bob: Let's get right to the hiding then! First up we have the bush apparatus and Derry from Fuzzy Tails.

Jim: Look at the sheer will of that hide Bob! What an impressive showing! Looks like Derry isn't the only bush hider in this family Bob. Let's take a look at Nicki.
Bob: Jim these are some bold hiders in this family! It's an impressive use of the bush apparatus for both mancats. It's a "I dare you to see me" double hide!

Jim: Now we have Devon from Four Crazy Cats in the bushes.

Bob: Are you sure this is the right photo Jim? I'm not sure I see the catlete here..
Jim: Yes Bob. ::Whispers:: Black cat in the middle of the frame. Now let's take a look at our next bush hider. It's the veteran Ginger Jasper!
Bob: WOW! It's like these catletes just challenge you to see them! Look at the dare in that eye, er, eyes! Looks like Dante of All About Lacocoon Dante is rising to the challenge.



Bob: Looks like this catlete is trying to hide from the pawparrazzi here Jim! I bet this happens all the time.
 
Jim: ::Shuffles paper:: Wait Bob I'm getting news that we have some, er, dogletes in this competition.

Bob: Dogletes? Let's take a look at Robo the Ninja Dog from Raising Rama in the bush apparatus.
Jim: So impressive Bob! Lasers on stun, and "I dare you to notice me" hide! And now the, er, other end of the doglete spectrum we have Roo from Roos Doin.


Bob: It sure is an impressive hide Jim! It's a "I don't see you" hide. Doglete? What doglete? Now on to our next catlete, Spunky Doodle from Right Where We Belong.

Jim: Well Bob look at the spunk of Spunky Doodle! This may be a 1/4 hide, but look at that catitude! I understand Spunky Doodle is not the only hider in this family.

Bob: No Jim, we also have Manny in an Under The Dresser 2/3 hide.

Jim: Look at the steely determination in that eye! I'm sure glad everyone is getting gold in this highly competitive event! Looks like we have Meow Me from Whisppy.

Bob: Looks like she is completely hidden from Felix. Sibling hiding is a very popular training technique for this event. Now we have Teddy from Huffle Mawson - Explorer Cat.

Bob: It's an impressive showing Jim. I don't know that a black cat, such as fellow housemate Huffle, could have pulled off this impressive hide.

Jim: I see your point Bob, but I'm sure Huffle needs to use her hiding powers from Teddy. Heh, heh. Now, let's see who's next in the line up... ::Covers mic:: I think this event needs to be a two-parter Bob.

Producer: Alright gentlemen, let's continue this event tomorrow.
